About

At Ray Alvarez Wedding Photography, we love to be different, which is why couples select us. You aren't just looking for a wedding photographer. You are looking for someone to put you at ease with the stress of wedding planning—at least for the photography part of it. You are also looking for a photographer who you can share your ideas with. It is, after all, "Your Day!"

I am an experienced wedding photographer based in Central Florida, shooting weddings from the beautiful suburbs of Orlando to the sun and sands of South Florida. I chase sunsets, and I don't mind rain shots.

Omg!! Ray is literally a ray of sunshine! I could of not asked for a better photographer to capture us a special day. He is the real MVP. Ray was so easy to work with, down to earth and kept everyone laughing and comfortable throughout the whole day. I would recommend him to every and anyone getting married! Whenever I had a question he answered immediately. I just received back my photos and I am still crying viewing them . Such amazing work!

Amazing Photographer

Ray was absolutely amazing! He is so professional, personable, and kind. Throughout the whole process, he communicated with me in a timely process. The day of my wedding he was in the area early to scout out the locations and become familiar with the area. My husband and I are awkward at taking pictures but he has some tricks up his sleeve to get some great candid shots of us. I could not be happier with his service and work. He has a more creative and artistic eye with photographer than I think most wedding photographers do. I highly recommend Ray without reservation.

Very professional! Great work

Ray was nothing short of great from our first meeting. Never hesitated to travel to us for our engagement shoot. Made us feel very comfortable with taking pics. Prompt with getting back great quality results. Ray was also soooo good on our wedding day making sure we got EVERY shot we wanted for our big day and more. So easy to work with and an overall great guy to have on our team. Thank you Ray! 🙌🏾

Highly professional and affordable

We were so grateful to have Ray at our wedding!! We got married outdoors in July. We chose Ray for his creative shots and his affordable price, and we got both. He was professional, flexible, and fun to work with. It was easy to communicate with him before the wedding, and his website is very simple and clear with great packages. When we spoke on the phone, I appreciated the care he took to make sure my elderly relatives would be comfortable on the big day.

On the day of, we loved his creative choices. He used all of the unique things about the venue (barn, fields, swing set) to create a collection of incredible photos. My husband and I didn’t have a traditional wedding - we didn’t have a first look, and were hanging out together with our family and friends before the ceremony. Ray managed to capture the open, loving feel of the event, snapping amazing photos of our friends and relatives while remaining unobtrusive. He also took charge during big family photos and gently but firmly wrangled them all into some great shots.

We can’t thank you enough, Ray!!!! We look at our wedding photos ALL the time.

Ray was so easy and fun to work with!

We had Ray do the photography for our wedding and we couldn’t be more pleased!! From the start he was always very responsive and easy to work with. I didn’t get a chance to meet him until our wedding day but from the second he showed up I just knew we had made the right decision. He was very professional yet fun! He fit right in with my family and friends. My husband and I aren’t big “posed” picture people and Ray was able to capture some amazing portraits without keeping us from our cocktail hour for too long (our reception immediately followed our ceremony and we didn’t want to do a “first look”). After our wedding, Ray was able to get our pictures back to us in about a month and when we got to look at them, we felt like we were reliving our day all over again. They were amazing! From the time we were getting ready to the crazy moves on the dance floor and sunset photos, I think Ray captured our day beautifully! I would highly recommend Ray!

Amazing Photographer!

Our engagement session with Ray did not disappoint! Everything ran so smoothly and Ray made the whole experience so enjoyable for both my fiancé and I. Ray is so organized and punctual. He returned our photos to us earlier than I had expected. I love every single photo and have absolutely no idea how I am going to chose for our save the dates! Ray's photos are unlike any I have seen. He has such an artistic eye for the perfect photo opportunity and captures sweet, unique photos. We are so excited to see the stunning photos he captures to help us remember our special day! Book with Ray, you'll be glad you did!!

Ray is the best! He truly delivers!

Ray did a fantastic job for my daughter's wedding! He is just so creative. He made sure to capture every special moment, and truly captured the spirit of the event. Some of the photos are works of art. He is not only an artist and a consummate professional but he brings such a fun attitude to the job that it's infectious. The fun really comes through in the photos. Thanks, Ray!

Ray is not only an amazingly talented photographer, but also a really great person to work with. From beginning to end, Ray made the process SO EASY for my fiancé and I. He was extremely flexible in scheduling a date for our engagement shoot and traveled to Hoboken, NJ without hesitation. He did a stellar job in helping my fiancé and I feel really comfortable and relaxed during the entire shoot. We had so much fun and could just be ourselves the whole time without feeling like we were posing for pictures…and that’s exactly what we were going for. We didn’t want the “traditional” engagement photos and Ray listened and delivered! Ray’s eye for details and aesthetic are so unique that he really lends himself a cutting edge from the traditional wedding/engagement photography market. If you want to meet and work with an awesome person, have a seamless and fun photo shoot, and receive beautiful end results, Ray is your man!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
